A discovery! Ardardan Farm which lies between Helensburgh and Cardross had a sign up "Pick Your Own Strawberries"!
Being basically just a big kid, I had to pay my £1 per punnet and head off to the strawberry patch. Fine, if it is a novelty; not so fine if you do it for a summer job in the hot, dusty orchard! Well, strawberry patch, actually but it comes to the same thing!
Having found this windfall, in a manner of speaking, I scrounged jars off Mairi and managed to fill the lot. Hot work, this jam-making.
Happiness, for me, are rows of filled jam jars!
